I provide counseling services to children (2+), adolescents, and adults specializing in childhood trauma including physical abuse, sexual abuse, neglect, and witnessing domestic violence.

My approach is supportive, warm, and collaborative. I believe that the client/counselor relationship is crucial in the therapeutic process. I am integrative in approach as I believe that no single therapy is beneficial for everyone. I use various counseling theories and techniques to treat the "whole" person. Depending on your goals in therapy I may draw from, experiential, cognitive behavioral therapy, humanistic, and/or systemic approaches. In working with children I primarily use play therapy techniques.

I have a decade of experience with adults, children, and families as a trauma-informed, holistic therapist. I work with individuals in the context of their childhood, attachment style, and past/current environments. I collaborate with her client to support the healing of anxiety, depression, self-esteem, cultural identity issues, relational issues, and trauma.
